BREAKING 🚨

The EU proposes a 15‑year safeguard period for new member states ⏳.

During the safeguard, nations can lose funding or voting rights for rule‑of‑law breaches ⚖️. It seeks to avoid Hungary‑style deadlocks with stronger post‑accession tools. Suspensions target only the gravest violations. Approval still requires all current EU members.

The proposal now heads to member‑state ratification 📈.
